[quote=Anonymous]My mom prefers baths and has one every day. I never took a shower at home until l was 12 or so, and learned how to do it on my own - I’m team no wash cloth except for my face when l wash it outside of the shower. I thought baths and sharing bath water (one family member after another) was normal. My grandpa was a farmer and bathed once a week on Saturday evening, to be clean for church on Sunday. 2 of my grandparents grew up in log houses with dirt floors, they had poor European immigrant parents. I was the first female in my family to graduate from college, in 1998. My mom looks down on people who don’t clean their own house and don’t bake from scratch. Doesn’t matter if they have a full time job. She was a homemaker. It took me until my 30s to figure out that non-wealthy people who work full time outside the home might be happy to pay someone else to do those things, and that’s not a sign of being a spendthrift or lazy. My list could be pages. [/quote]
